How to change default listening port for Vsftpd

July 8th, 2009 by keith Leave a reply »

If you are running vsftpd in standalone mode (not Xinetd), add the “listen_port” directive in vsftpd.conf,like this:

listen_port=222

If you are running vsftpd from an inetd or xinetd program, this becomes an inetd or xinetd problem. You must change the inetd or xinetd configuration files (perhaps /etc/inetd.conf or /etc/xinetd.d/vsftpd).
